  • Salt (1/2 Cup)
  • Black Pepper (2 Tablespoons)
  • Dry Mint (2 Tablespoons)

  4. Add 2 tablespoons of black pepper.
  5. Add 2 tablespoons of dry mint.
  6. Add 1 tablespoon of dry thyme.
  7. Add 1 tablespoon of dry rosemary leaves.
  8. Work everything into the prime rib with your hands. Rub all over so that all sides are well incorporated.
  9. Poke the prime rib with a knife deep enough so that you can insert garlic cloves.
  10. Open a whole clove of garlic and insert them into the holes.
  11. Throw about 8-10 bay leaves onto the prime rib.
  12. Cook the prime rib uncovered on 500º for 30 minutes then 350º the remainder of the time.
  13. Baste every 30 minutes for juiciness.
